SCA: security update for @nestjs/core (GHSA-36xv-jgw5-4q75)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 440028

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Nest is a framework for building scalable Node.js server-side applications. Prior to 11.1.18,
 SseStream._transform() interpolates message.type and message.id directly into Server-Sent Events text
 protocol output without sanitizing newline characters (\r, \n). Since the SSE protocol treats both \r and
 \n as field delimiters and \n\n as event boundaries, an attacker who can influence these fields through
 upstream data sources can inject arbitrary SSE events, spoof event types, and corrupt reconnection state.
 This vulnerability is fixed in 11.1.18. (CVE-2026-35515)

Solution

Update the @nestjs/core library and its related packages to version 11.1.18 or later.
